Hi Pavel, Thanks! Such maps can definitely be helpful, I calculate them quite often - to identify bound ligands it is certainly helpful, or to highlight regions of the model that have poor fit to the map, similar to their use in crystallography.

Cheers,

Oliver.

Hi Oliver,

why not.. I think we can compute map from model and then subtract it from the experimental input map (after scaling them somehow).

No I did not have that plan because it wasn't clear to me how such map can be helpful (especially since we don't do best possible job on B factor refinement).

I will add this option.

Hello,

is there any possibility of (or current plan for) including the capacity in a future PHENIX release to calculate a residual map automatically after phenix.real_space refine, (i.e. simulating a map from the model incorporating corrections for B-factor variation and calculating a difference map with the experimental map)? This would be very convenient when building into EM maps.

Cheers,
Oli
